Husqvarna launches 2024 FS 450 supermoto bike
The 2024 Husqvarna FS 450 has been launched, with an updates paint scheme headlining the changes compared to the 2023 model.
Limited on technical changes, a new paint job headlines the updates to the Husqvarna FS 450 supermoto bike for 2024.
Following the recent launch of Husqvarna’s motocross range for 2024, their latest iteration of the Husqvarna FS 450 supermoto bike follows its off-road sibling in swapping yellow, blue and white paint for a greyed out design with yellow highlights.
An additional update to the bike for 2024 is a new seat cover. The intention is to create more grip on the cover, which should then hand more control over the motorcycle to the rider.
Elsewhere, the engine remains the same as before, the fame maintains its focus on anti-squat, and the suspension comes from WP - 48mm XACT forks, and an XACT shock, too. The main piston of the shock is also computer-designed and optimised, and it features toolless adjustability.
ProTaper provides the handlebar, while Brembo supplies the hydraulic clutch.

Alex has been working in the motorcycle industry for as long as he has been at Visordown, which has been since March 2022 so we'll let you work it out from there. He's the new guy. He'd be fetching us all coffee 'round the clock if he wasn't based in the arse end of nowhere.
